Of course he follows this up by making a comment that he doesn't want poor students to have a boring education. However, does that take away from the above comment that, as a reformer, he appears to state that "Democratic decision-making, self-directed studies, internal motivation, and the like"will not benefit poor children?

That is a piece of racist diatribe if I ever read it. I am shocked that Petrilli would uphold separate and unequal! Black and brown children do not deserve a democratic voice??? In other words, all they deserve is to be kept with a child-like mentality so they can be controlled and manipulated like 19th c slaves. White people have never had the answer on how to educate people of color, and quite frankly, they never will!
